Ever since I was quite young.. (age of 10) I have been SKIMBOARDING! For those of you who don't know what skimboarding is.. it consists of, initially, a thin wood board that you throw on a shallow layer of water by the sea.. You then jump on the board and glide along the sand.. doing small tricks (if you so wish) as you go along.
As you evolve in this sport you will slowly go on using larger and larger boards .. and eventually reach boards that look like surf boards without fins. With these boards you can actually ride the closer shorebreaking waves, doing many of the tricks that surfers can do. I may have made it sound simpler than it actually is.. but here are a few pics to show you what skimboarders ARE capable of.. and much more...
